FFS Cup

The latest FFS Cup fixtures and results

Our FFS Open Cup and FFS Members Cup competitions are nearing their conclusions, with the quarter-finals set to take place in Gameweek 22.

There’s a total of £600-worth of prizes on offer across the two tournaments, with a full breakdown towards the bottom of this article.

FFS MEMBERS CUP

Two managers sitting inside the top 1k made it through to the quarter-finals of our FFS Members Cup but another bowed out.

ZIKOFLY (179th) and Mingo (973rd) saw off The Darkest Knight and Jonaldinho respectively, the former squeaking through by a single point.

Minority Laporte had another green arrow to move up to 423rd but their Gameweek 21 score of 82 points wasn’t enough to beat Scrumper, who prospered by a narrow two-point margin.

I Member (1,867th) dropped out of the top 1k and exited our FFS Open Cup after losing 69-64 to Phoenix From The Flames.

The standard is high in our quarter-finals, with all eight remaining managers inside the top 35k. 

The full results from round six are here.

The quarter-final draw is here.

FFS OPEN CUP

In contrast to the FFS Members Cup, there are no managers within the top 1,000 still standing in this tournament.

In fact, Matjes_taet – who saw off AntyChosenOnes 77-71 in Gameweek 21 – is the only one in the top 10k.

The mysterious ‘Restored’ team continued their fairytale run after a presumed hack in Gameweek 7, with their latest victory seeing wayne50 eliminated. Dansen is next up for the phoenix-like FPL side.

Fusen‘s score of 93 was the highest of the round and enough to see off Lanley Staurel Utd.

The full round seven results can be viewed here.

The quarter-final draw is available here.

HOW DO THE CUP COMPETITIONS WORK?

The FFS Cup is very similar to the Fantasy Premier League’s own cup game.

Entrants who qualify for the first round were randomly drawn against each other and the winner of the tie is whoever has the highest score from that Gameweek, minus points spent on transfers (like in the original game and in head-to-head scores).

In the event of a draw, the manager highest in the overall FPL rankings after the tie will progress.

WHAT IS THE GAMEWEEK SCHEDULE?

The FFS Open Cup competition will be played out according to the following proposed Gameweek schedule:

  • Qualifying – Gameweek 12
  • Round 1 – Gameweek 13
  • Round 2 – Gameweek 15
  • Round 3 – Gameweek 16
  • Round 4 – Gameweek 17
  • Round 5 – Gameweek 18
  • Round 6 – Gameweek 19
  • Round 7 – Gameweek 21
  • Quarter-Final – Gameweek 22
  • Semi-Finals – Gameweek 23
  • Final and third place play-off – Gameweek 24

​The FFS Members Cup competition will run as follows:

  • Qualifying – Gameweek 13
  • Round 1 – Gameweek 15
  • Round 2 – Gameweek 16
  • Round 3 – Gameweek 17
  • Round 4 – Gameweek 18
  • Round 5 – Gameweek 19
  • Round 6 – Gameweek 21
  • Quarter-Final – Gameweek 22
  • Semi-Finals – Gameweek 23
  • Final and third place play-off – Gameweek 24

  2. FPL Doctor
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Crazy to take a hit for a Burnley defender (for James) given reasonable chance of a double double?

    1. Runks
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I'd rather go Spurs or Brighton.

  3. the dom 1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Kane or CR7 if you had to pick this DGW?

    1. Cowboy John
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Kane.

    2. Gunners in Haaland
      • 4 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      CR7

    3. Bavarian
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Kane

    4. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Kane

    5. marcos11
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Kane

  4. jia you
    • 7 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Here's my first FH draft...rip it apart please where necessary!

    De Gea
    Trent Reguilon Alonso
    Jota Maddison Moura Mount
    Kane Ronaldo Dennis
    (Schmeichel Varane Lowton Siss)
    0.5

    1. Holmes
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I would probably pick Rudiger over Alonso for gametime safety. Other than that, all set.

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers Holmes my man, will still with Alonso for nostalgia sake!

    2. Nobodinho
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I'd pick Bowen over Moura/Mount but why not in FH.

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        yeah Bowen could outscore both but at least Bowen will be back in my team next week if it does happen

    3. mojoindojo
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Looks good.
      I went with Rudiger, Cucurella over Reg, Alonso since their gametime is a doubt.

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Cheers

    4. Cowboy John
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Seems a bit safe/ boring for a free hit..?

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        but I need points 😉

    5. Herogrows
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I hate this team….. but only because I’m not free hitting and I can see you scoring huge this week!!

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        haha, my non FH team could outscore it...that's my worry!

    6. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      As some others have said I would like to see Bowen in there based on his fixture but I also see why you would want the front 7 you have.

      1. jia you
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        yeah hard leaving out Bowen but have to go for it

        1. Albrightondknight
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 2 months ago

          I saw on the last page you are considering Dennis C.
          That’s what I am going for.
          Finally just to annoy you my non FH team has 8 of your FH and Bowen after a hit 🙂 I need a huge week as my OR is so bad this year. GL.

          1. jia you
            • 7 Years
            2 years, 2 months ago

            Me too...GL mate!

  5. Nobodinho
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Would you FH this lot? Could get this team for a hit:

    Ramsdale
    TAA Cancelo REGUILON LAMPTEY
    Jota MADDISON Bowen Saka
    Antonio DENNIS

    Guaita Eduoard Son* Livra*

    1. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      No FH. Stick with that

      1. Nobodinho
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks mate.

  6. Fabreghastly
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 13 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    I'm thinking of Dennis and King this week. Anyone else?

    1. Old Man
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      o/

      1. Fabreghastly
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Who are you dropping?

    2. Albrightondknight
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      If you need to gain big time there are a lot worse punts for sure. I wouldn’t say it’s a bad idea.

      1. Fabreghastly
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 13 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, Watford's season is pretty much over if they get nothing from the next three. That sort of motivation often falls flat but King is 'due' and it would be typical if he finally bangs in a DGW

  7. George James
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Best move for this team?

    Sanchez
    Emerson TAA Lowton
    Son Jota Gray Bowen
    Antonio Kane DCL

    Pickford / Cancelo / B.Johnson / Ramsey

    A) Son >> Maddison

    B) Antonio >> Dennis

    C) Antonio + Son >> Dennis + Maddison -4

    D) Antonio + Son >> Ronaldo + Tielemans -4

    1. Nobodinho
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      A

    2. BERGKOP
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I've done A bit considering C

      1. BERGKOP
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        *but

    3. The 12th Man
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Virtually the same dilemma for me.
      I’m definitely doing A.

      Son,Antonio > Fernandes,Dennis could also be an option.

      Just wondering whether it’s worth saving 4 points and playing Cancelo.

      1. George James
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Not really considered Bruno to be honest. I will want Dennis for Norwich game 100% so it’s basically a hit now and bench cancelo or not. Tough

        1. The 12th Man
          • 10 Years
          2 years, 2 months ago

          Bruno would be punt of course for the DGW. He hasn’t looked great but you never know.
          He’d be a placeholder for Salah or a City midfielder.

    4. Cowboy John
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      A

  8. The 12th Man
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Think I’m going to sell Antonio for Dennis for free.

    Worth a -4 to do Son > Maddison or Trossard?Would mean benching Cancelo

    1. DLLM
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Son to maddison should the priority. Antonio to dennis is secondary.

      1. Nobodinho
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        What he said.

      2. BERGKOP
        • 12 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Agree with this. Son to Mad is the priority.

      3. The 12th Man
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Son can be benched and moved to a City player next week.
        I’m not confident with the DGW midfield options this week.
        So for me Dennis is more of a priority.

        1. No Kane No Gain
          • 5 Years
          2 years, 2 months ago

          Maddison will score more than Dennis this week If both Lei games gets played

          1. The 12th Man
            • 10 Years
            2 years, 2 months ago

            Maddison is a great option,I agree
            You can’t 100% say that he’ll score more though.
            First of all you have the unpredictability of the Leicester games going ahead and Dennis is also a great option too.

            1. No Kane No Gain
              • 5 Years
              2 years, 2 months ago

              Yes you can’t 100% say anything but this is what I think, and I did say if BOTH Lei games are played.

              Both great picks, but just look at those latest Maddison scores. He scored in game cup too. I think he could haul big this week

              1. The 12th Man
                • 10 Years
                2 years, 2 months ago

                Ok. I may do both for -4 then.
                Just means benching Cancelo.

  9. Boz
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Bench one:

    A) Bilva
    B) Dias
    C) Martinelli

    Currently on B as I always play the attackers. Can't help but think City will shut Chelsea out though

    1. Nobodinho
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      A

  10. FinnGooner
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Sanchez (Ramsdale)
    TAA - Cancelo - Rüdiger (White, Livra)
    Foden - Jota - Bowen - Maddison (Bilva)
    Maupay - Antonio - CR7

    Bench Foden for Bilva?

    Dennis for Antonio (-4)?

  11. SpaceCadet
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Kane or Maddison? Can only get one.

    1. Henryyy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Kane if he gets the Arsenal game

  12. rokonto
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    So do we know which teams likely douuble in gw23?

    1. Arctic monkeys
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      We don't even know who doubles in 22

    2. huwwilliams_
      • 9 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      villa v burnley most likely

  13. Henryyy
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone worth a hit here lads?

    Sanchez
    Rudiger TAA Cancelo
    Maddison Bowen Gray Jota
    Antonio Dennis CR7

    Ramsdale - Martinelli Johnson Livramento

    6.4m ITB

    Cheers lads!

    1. Nobodinho

      1. Henryyy
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks mate

  14. _Gunner
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Which is better?

    A- Salah + Son + Broja > Jota + Maddy + Ronaldo (-8), bench Gray

    B- Son + Broja > Jota/Maddy + Dennis (-4) and play Gray

    I already have King

    1. Henryyy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Who is your C on B?

      1. _Gunner
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        King

  15. mojoindojo
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Mount or Moura?

    1. -GK22-
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Surely mount a pain as Chelsea fixtures disappear

      1. mojoindojo
        • 10 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        On FH.

  16. DAZZ
    • 9 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Thinking Antonio + Son > Ronaldo(c) + Maddison -4? Think Ronaldo (c) will make up on selling Antonio, i know he has a good fixture but i’ll keep Bowen for that. Also Antonio has Man Utd away next GW, thoughts on this -4?

  17. NZREDS
    • 10 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Lots of articles saying arsenal could postponed? What a headache that what be.

    1. Free Hat
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Just posted below. Think it might be close indeed.

  18. -GK22-
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 11 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Does anyone think Foster will play?

    Can’t decide on him of DDG to start it even BB now?

    1. No Kane No Gain
      • 5 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Bachmann is awful. Lost every game since foster injury. For me it’s a question of how many games Foster plays this gameweek...

  19. Wardinator
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    I want 3 players but can only take 2 this week, who do i prioritise p?

    A) Maddison
    B) Jota
    C) Kane

    1. Ëð
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      A and C

    2. Onz
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      A and C imo

  20. Free Hat
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Looking at arsenal bench from yesterday and if you rule out Xhaka + Saka (possible injury) from their starting 11...
    It will be a close one to get 13 senior players like Arteta said.

    1. THFC4LIFE
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Hesitant about bringing in Kane now, but on the other hand if the game does go ahead could be good v a depleted Arsenal side

      1. Free Hat
        • 5 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Thats the plus side indeed.

      2. Captain Kakaroto (I blame R…
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Depleted?
        They just draw against Pool…

    2. circusmonkey
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      It will be a disgrace if the game is cancelled. One covid case mentioned and the rest just injuries and Xhaka being stupid.

  21. ife
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Is it mental to use my wildcard now? My team requires an overhaul, i used my freehit last GW. What do you guys think? This is my team presently

    Reguilon-alonso-arnold-cancelo
    foden-sallah-son-gallagher
    Denni-Maximin

    Watkins/bissouma/willaims

    Please I'll really appreciate suggestions

    1. Ëð
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Doesn't need a WC, do Salah -> ? And Max -> Ronaldo

  22. Ëð
    • 8 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    G2G? Or worth doing Antonio -> Dennis? £3.9m ITB, 1FT

    Sanchez
    Reg, Trent, Cancelo
    Jota, Foden, Madison, Bowen
    Ronaldo, King, Antonio

    Foster, Dalot, Livramento, Martinelli

  23. Van der Faart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    What to do here?

    Bachmann
    TAA Rudiger Keane
    Bowen Jota Gray Bilva
    King Kane Edouard

    Ramsdale Saka Dias Livra

    4m ITB

    A) Bilva to Maddison
    B) Saka to Maddison
    C) A or B plus Ramsdale to DDG

    1. Ëð
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      A

    2. SpaceCadet
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      B

  24. Ian Davis
    • 14 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    On Free Hit:

    A) Trent or DGW player

    B) Bowen or Lucas

    1. Ëð
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Trent and Bowen

    2. mojoindojo
      • 10 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Trent, Bowen

  25. Jamb0
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone considering starting Foster? Not sure Foster will play, but could be epic if he does... I have Guaita (bha) to come on if he misses both

    1. Nate(U)dog(ie)
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I doubt he'll miss both, I'd say he'll at least start one, but the question is if he only starts one is he a better option than your other keeper

      1. Jamb0
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        well then in my case it would come down to:

        Guaita (bha) vs Foster (bur)...

        tough to call... probably worth a try

    2. Silecro
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      I'll start him ahead of Sanchez

  26. Jones Kusi
    • 5 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    What would you do here?

    1 FT 1.8 ITB

    De gea Gunnarsson
    Dawson Dalot Cancelo Taa Livra
    Bowen Son Jota Bernardo Brownhill
    Antonio CR7 King

  27. Silecro
    • 6 Years
    2 years, 2 months ago

    Unpopular opinion but..is anyone besides me keeping Son on the bench? He should miss just gameweeks 22 and 23, I can field a team without him in both gameweeks. Main reason is that i have no-one appaling enough to sell Son for. Other mids I have are Maddy, Jota, Bowen, Foden. And now game vs Arsenal is even in doubt

      I'd shift him for someone purely because there is a chance that games of the other mids you have could potentially be off at any stage too, and you want your bench players having more than zero

        Good point, but the problem is that I already have everyone i want in midfield, the player i would be buying instead of Son would be kind of a stretch at best. Not sold on Mount & Moura, both of them currently have more cons than pros in my opinion

      I was thinking that, then saw that Spurs face Wolves and ManCity in 25&26. So figured that's potentially only 1 good fixture in 5 weeks for him. Ended up getting rid and will reallocate funds.

        I consider Son to be fixture-proof, so I'm not overly repulsed by the fixtures

    Which moves to make?

    A)
    Son -> Maddison
    Locadia -> Dennis
    -4

    This option keeps Salah and saves a transfer in the future. Captain Maddison or Dennis this week.

    B)
    Salah -> Maddison
    Locadia -> Kane
    -4

    Gets me Kane captain this week but probably would transfer him straight out for Watkins next GW.

    C)
    Salah -> Maddison
    Locadia -> Kane
    Son -> Bruno
    -8

    Kane captain and would play Bruno instead of Dawson.

    Is anyone conscious about bringing in Spurs players for hits after the injuries to Arsenal last night and the potential lack of players for Leicester?

    Imagine bringing in Kane only for 1 or both to be called off.

      Foxes should be OK now, but Arsenal ..... who knows?
